I have included a image of my specs, im also using Linux sense thats what works on my laptop. Im looking for free to play games that will run smoothly on my system/laptop. I would like to try popular and maybe online titles.
I thought about trying old school RuneScape but idk.
Ss14 and cdda
Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead, Dwarf Fortress, Space Station 13 (online), Simutrans, OpenTTD, Battle for Wesnoth
All the cool kids play the Cataclysm: The Last Generation fork these days 😎
It’s definetly not for everyone but space station 14 can be a lot of fun.
do u fw old minecraft? i like the beta version, its free if you use betacraft launcher >:)
Should run Wurm online just fine, which isn’t that demanding but is still a 3D games. Sandbox MMO that I got back into playing lately, casual game to most people.
2D games are great too like most people are suggesting, got a 2011 Pentium laptop running Drox Operative 2 at a smooth 60FPS.
Nethack
I’d be worried if it didn’t run nethack!
the game to rule them all
Any Gameboy game with an emulator.
Nintendo doesn’t care about making their old games, nay, works of art like Golden Sun still playable, so I consider them free to play at this point.
Bit of an odd example to cite since both Golden Sun games are officially available on NSO.
Seems like it’s a yearly subscription membership only thing. If I can’t buy it and own it I pirate it.
Notice how the the NSO platform is not available on the PC? No sale, time to download.
The person I replied said Nintendo wasn’t making their old games playable at all. You’re complaining about something else.
Zork is going to be great. Decent should run ok.
I would take a look at Warframe.

I like the gameplay and it ran on every hardware.
SuperTuxCart
Even Warframe will run on that puppy (with low settings and without all the particles, other than that they’ve got the whole efficiency thing down pat)
Shattered pixel dungeon!
Go old school: Baldur’s Gate, Icewind Dale, Command and Conquer
I think the free Ascii version of Dwarf Fortress should run fine.
